Unknown Future Residence. Others may not know where they will be living when winners are selected and need to use the return address of a trusted third party that will not change.
Confirmation Number. Ethical lottery services should immediately provide your official U.S. State Department confirmation number to you if you win. For DV-2011 the confirmation number has this format: DV2011V1B7K5WE7IY. If you do not receive your confirmation number then your service may be fraudulent.

To use a green card lottery service, Just fill out their paper-based application OR their on-line form. Be sure to follow the guidelines for photographs. They will electronically submit your registration on your behalf. If your photographs do not meet the required specifications, they should contact you immediately for a replacement.
If You Use a Service. If you decide to use a service send in your paper application about 2 weeks after the start of the lottery, but well before the closing date of the lottery. Some lottery services only accept electronic entries.
There are several excellent lottery sites that provide good service. Some have 24-hour toll free telephone numbers, attorney contacts, and complete translations for non-English readers. Others accept applications received as late as one or two weeks before the closing date of the lottery, but charge an additional fee for processing last minute applications.
Also remember, it may be difficult or impossible to change incorrect application data if you submit your application too close to the end of the lottery. Again, ONLY use myGreencard.com's paid lottery service recommendations, if you decide to pay for assistance. |
